1. Title: A Nostalgic Glimpse into Aviation History: The de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter Series 100 CF-AWC of AirWest Airlines This evocative photograph captures the de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter Series 100 CF-AWC (msn 108) of AirWest Airlines, as it gracefully rests at Richmond, British Columbia, circa 1980. With its distinctive twin-engine design and short, stubby wings, the Twin Otter has long been a beloved figure in the world of aviation. First taking to the skies on March 4, 1968, the CF-AWC served as a vital link in the transportation network of Canada's vast and remote regions. Its versatility and ruggedness made it an ideal choice for bush pilots and small airlines, enabling them to reach even the most inaccessible destinations. However, the serene image of this aircraft in the photograph belies a tragic end to its story. On July 8, 2007, CF-AWC met its demise when it crashed and was destroyed by fire at Northern Rockies Lodge, Muncho Lake, BC. The incident resulted in one fatality and four injuries, a grim reminder of the inherent risks associated with flight. Despite this unfortunate ending, the de Havilland Canada DHC-6 Twin Otter Series 100 CF-AWC continues to be a cherished symbol of aviation history. Its legacy lives on in the countless memories of those who have flown on it or admired its distinctive silhouette in the skies. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the past, as well as a testament to the enduring allure of aviation.
